I Can't Drag Pics to iPhoto in the Dock Anymore....

Hey Hey!!!
I upgraded to Snow Leopard and since then, I can't drag pics and leave them in iPhoto in the dock.
The pics drag, but bounce back when I let go of them in iPhoto.
What can I do to change this?
Thanks!!!!
Dan

Hey Hey
Are you dragging from the Finder? Or for a Web Browser? If it's Safari right click on the pic and choose 'Add to iPhoto Library'.

I reinstalled iPhoto 9.1 and now I can't drag and drop photos to the desktop. The photos have a grayed out flag in the upper left corner and a pull down menu in the bottom right. Please help.

Dragging photos from iPhoto to the Desktop

Hi Folks, can anyone help?
When I drag photos from iPhoto to the desktop, a plus sign appears on the dragged image and a copy is created on the desktop. That's fine and that's how it should work.
I have 1 roll (out of some 300) with some 200 photos where this does not work. Currently, I am not in a position to move a copy from that roll in iPhoto to the desktop.
Any idea where the issue is?
Thanks for your help!

Are you getting an error message that says something to the effect that one of the files are busy? If so this is usually due to the original files sharing the same file title in the Finder. An easy way to get around this is to use the export feature of iPhoto and choose "use album name" It is something like this: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iPhoto/6.0/en/hlp215.html Try exporting them to a folder that you create on your desktop. If you use the export feature iPhoto can rename the files so they don't share the same title.

In iTunes I can't drag and drop podcasts onto my iPod anymore.

In iTunes I can't drag and drop podcasts onto my iPod anymore. I can still drag and drop songs onto my iPod and I can still drag and drop podcasts into other playlists. I've tried restarting my computer and my iPod and I've also checked for software updates for the iPod and iTunes. Help?

Update: I seem to have fixed the problem! I went to the "summary" section of my iPod after clicking on the device on the left side of iTunes. I checked the box that allowed me to "manually manage music and videos" and applied this option. The songs are syncing! And, yay, they're playing on my iPod now! Hopefully, this helps anyone else who might have this problem. There might be other issues, but this is working for now.

You are welcome.
Sorting and organizing photos on IOS devices is one of the things that really need to be improved. It looks like the developers simply did not expect the users to want to keep large photo libraries on an IOS device, where the ordering would matter. I'd send feedback to the developer team, so that they see, what the users want and need:
You can use this form: Apple - iPhoto - Feedback

How can I drag contacts into numbers like the old version?

How can I drag contacts into numbers like the old version?

Copy and paste works. But drag and drop is also back in version 3.2. It works well here. Just drag and drop onto the canvas.Make sure you've upgraded to version 3.2 as earlier versions of Number 3 did not support drag and drop from Contacts.
Note that the column headers are misaligned if you are dragging contacts that do not contain an image. But the information in the body of the table drags in correctly.

Hi, I can't email photos from iphoto as the email server doesn't recognise my password / username combination... any ideas how / where i fix this?

Go to iPhoto's Accounts preference pane and delete the email account there. Then add it back again.
If that fails you can set Mail at the email client for iPhoto in iPhoto's General preference pane. Mail is more reliable, gives you a sent copy and has better access to your contacts. It also has photo templates if you need them. They are in the stationary selection menu.

I have multiple iPhoto libraries and when I selecting which library to view (hold down 'option' key and launch iPhoto from the dock) it automatically closes another open apps window eg. Chome, Word. 1 app closes every time I launch iPhoto this way.

I have multiple iPhoto libraries on my Macbook Air 10.7.5 and when I am selecting which library to view (hold down 'option' key and launch iPhoto from the dock) it automatically closes another open application window eg. Chome, Word. 1 app closes every time I launch iPhoto this way.

If you're pushing Option at the exact moment you're clicking the Dock icon, it's supposed to do that. Wait until just after clicking it.

External editor getting error window when trying to load photo in iphoto yet I can drag out of iphoto to the desktop then load right into photoshop with no errors

I use Photoshop elements 9 to edit , since the last up-date when I'm in iPhoto and click edit in external editor when photoshop opens it sits there a minute and and then a error window comes up saying something about an unvalead jpeg marker can't open but I came drag the image out of iPhoto to the desktop and then open it with photoshop with no trouble ? help I'm running 10.6.7 on a 2007 mac pro iPhoto 11 Ver. 9.1.3

There's a bug in iPhoto 9.1.3 when using Photoshop as the external editor when trying to edit a tif, png or psd file. That's because iPhoto is just duplicating that file and changing the extension to jpg without acutally changing the photo's format. That's why PS says it's an unknown format.
No know solution at this time except edit only jpgs and raw files in iPhoto with Photoshop. Also send a bug report to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html.

Can't drag pics from email anymore, why not?

Why won't iphoto let me drag pics from my email into my iphoto library anymore. Pls help. Thanks.

try deleting the iPhoto preferences - "your username" ==> library ==> preferences ==> com.apple.iphoto.com - when you launch iPhoto it will create a new, default preference file - you will have to reset any changes you have made

How do I put iPhoto in the dock when I can't drag it there? I've had iPhoto problems before, and I now have 6 iPhoto libraries with up to 5k in each. Recently had motherboard replaced and have 10.6.8.

Can I have too many photos in an iPhoto library?

Launch iPhoto by double clicking it in the applications folder. While it running right click on it in the Dock and select keep in Dock
As to number of photos. 250,000 or more in an iPhoto library
